Ok, so thanks to the supportive reviewer comments, minus the one that shall not be named as I have a temperamental artist sitting next to me, Andi has calmed enough that she can write actual chapters again! I know many of you are happy to see the updates finally, and we'll try to not take as long with the next ones!

And I'd like to apologize for my outburst… *blushes* I'm not normally so angry. I know a lot of you were looking forward to an update and I took up a slot with a rant over a comment that I probably shouldn't've let affect me. My sincerest apologies everyone!

Not like anyone blames you. I mean, come on! And no one was out of line with their reviews and I'd personally like to thank you all for your comments and support, many of the reviews made Andi giggle!

Any who! On with the story!

Darkness flooded my mind, the feeling of light-headedness making me almost sick to my stomach and the stench of rotting garbage, mold, and copper curdling it even more. As the feeling of my body came back I felt something slimy sliding up and down my spine, causing chills to run rampant over my skin. I gave a soft tug to try and get away, but all that happened was a pressure tightened on my wrist and I swung a bit.

I was hanging from the ceiling by my wrists with only God knows what touching me.

I slowly opened my eyes only to be looking directly at a tin wall of a dimly lit building. I froze when I heard a growl behind me and started to shake when I felt the sharp tips of needles in my lower back and drag around to my front. I tried to keep focused on the wall as the goose bumps rose on my skin and a light nervous sweat broke out over my skin. When the thing walked around in front of me I had to try not to scream out in fear for my new baby when that same green and gray skin and beady black eyes came into my vision. It hissed at me with an evil gleam in its eyes as it ran a needle over my shoulder, down my chest, and started circling around my baby girl with pressure just shy of breaking the skin. I snarled at it before I realized that I was completely naked.

God damn it why do I always in up naked when I get kidnapped?

"My child, leave the sub-creature alone." Came a laughing voice. I saw the dark cloak moving toward me, seeming to drag something behind it…her. "Dartok, come and take this from mommy. I don't seem to have the strength today." She called. I watched a bigger demon with actual arms come from the shadows, a slightly more human face than animal, come over to her and stand in front of her. He held out a hand to her and waited as she handed a blue arm to him, I watched his arm flex and tensed at the fact that it looked like the same size as Hellboy's. He then stood there looking at her, his burnt gold eyes staring at the face behind the hood expectantly when I heard her sigh and pulled the hood back to reveal almost white blonde hair and icy blue eyes. "You expect my love my darling?"

He nodded and had an odd gleam in his eyes as he reached out and grabbed her cloak to tear it off, revealing the same type of outfit as Delilah, only in a light blue, and then ran a claw over her throat lightly. She shivered lightly and got a crazier look in her face before pulling his head down by his black hair and slamming his mouth into hers.

I had to fight back the urge to retch.

This was her son! Wait… Delilah, she told me about a woman who'd found their sacred book and said some type of spell that let her have birth… but she had monsters instead of children and was now forever cursed to have the destroyers of life, three for every day she lived I think she said…

"She may only give birth once every month." Delilah told me with a sad look. "However long the month lasts, multiply that by three and she is forced to bear that many children such as that. But you must beware John… there is one that has been alive for almost as long as she has been. Dartok; he is her first son but also the father of his brothers."

"I don't understand… How is he the father of his own siblings?" I asked, feeling sick to my stomach.

"She decided to let a human touch her in her first day of having the spell cast, which caused him to have human characteristics. Arms instead of tentacles, a human face, and also have the human's mentality. Once he was born, she did the one thing that all Life givers look down upon and taught him that he was to be her loyal son, her servant, and her lover. She had told him that he was going to forever be her beautiful little monster. We kept them in our community, trying to be the friends she had had before all of this came about while at the same time trying to teach him that it was wrong what she was teaching him. When he became of age and she brought him before the town square to declare him as hers forever, we all realized that she expected us to except it and follow her example.

"She was cast out of our ancestral homeland and told she may never return. Her son vowed to take revenge over us all and that all of his children would destroy all of the life we ever gave to our chosen. He is almost as insane as his mother after years of being in her care, and he thinks that such actions are perfectly fine… but she is more dangerous than all of them my Dove."

"What's her name?"

"Bathsheba." She whispered.

"Take this creature over beside the new little toy." She said huskily. He nodded and started dragging the burden over. I gasped when I saw it was Abe.

"Let him go!" I shouted, causing both her and Dartok to stop and look at me. She walked over and brushed a hand over my hip, causing me to shudder on disgust. "Why did you bring him?"

"We wouldn't want him to be able to help the others find you, now would we?" She asked with a sharp smirk. "You are much too valuable to be found my darling. You see, Dartok has a fascination with you ever since you shot my beautiful boy in his shoulder. I intend to let him have his way with you and then have your baby girl as a distraction for when I am gone and he needs relief."

"Like I'd ever let that monster touch my daughter!" I growled, glaring at him as he strung Abe up next to me. "Hellboy'll find you and tear you limb from limb before you even looked at her!"

"I'll take care of these two mother, you must be tired after so many trips for the unworthy scum such as these." Came the bass voice from the beast. I watched in disgust as he hugged her from behind and kissed her neck. "Go get some sleep with the others. I shall be there soon."

"Oh my love, you are too good to me." She sighed and gave him another kiss before leaving. He watched her until she was out of sight and spit on the ground, wiping his mouth with his forearm, and turned back to me with his eyes blazing.

"Finally, now I can speak to you without that crazy bitch here." He growled and walked over to grab my hips and pull me closer. "Now you listen to me Agent John Myers. I will have that child, and any other you bear after this. I am tired of only fucking that bitch I call a mother and want some new meat. I've been studying on your human genetics. The only reason my children are so disfigured and not like me is because that bitch and I are unfortunate enough to have the same DNA. But with your daughter in my hands I can have the perfect army of children to go into battle with me against those damn Life demons! With she and I having no relation in common our children will have nothing wrong with them! And with you in my grasp I can have plenty of time with her before she tears out of you, maybe even let her feel me through you before she comes out so she is not terrified of my size when she comes to my arms!" His eyes glazed over, getting that crazy look over his face.

"You're insane." I whispered, trying to get away from him with wide eyes. "You're absolutely crazy!"

"No no no my lovely man, I am a genius! Can you imagine it? Your daughter is going to be my way of getting back at all the ridicule I've ever had to face, the ones who pointed at me and whispered that I wasn't natural, those disgusting people that think they were too good for me because I looked different. Well, soon they will be gone and I will have my victory!" He shouted with a laugh. He leaned down and kissed me forcefully before pulling away and walking off, his laughter following him. I felt a cold chill rush through me from my stomach where my daughter, Eva I'd decided, lay.

There was no way in hell I was going to let that bastard have my daughter.

-HB POV-

"Pop, I'm going with you damn it!" Came the cracked voice from behind me. I sighed, ready for another fight like I'd had for the past three days, and turned to see Trevor standing there, his hands on his hips and glaring at me, his eyes almost pure gold. "It's my Dad and my Uncle Abe! I'm gonna help get them back from that bitch and there's nothing you or Aunt De can say to change my mind about it!"

"No Trevor. Do you know what John would do to me if I let you go and you got hurt? I'll tell you; once he got free he'd skin me alive, mount my ass on the wall, and keep my horns in a jar for a souvenir!"

"I thought he'd do that with your dick." Trevor said with a tilted head.

"Well, that too but that's for a diff- never mind, you still ain't goin'!"

"I am too! Damn it Pops you aren't the only one here that loves Dad and Uncle Abe! They're my family too!"

"I know…" I sighed and sat on the bed, my head in my hands. I felt every bit my sixty-five years at that moment. I moved one of my hands to my chest where my heart, I was pretty sure, had stopped beating. I felt dead inside ever since that day Scout was taken. "But you're my son Trevor. I can't let you get hurt too."

"He will not." Came a confident voice from the door frame. I looked up to see De, who had actually put on a bronze and gold chest plate with symbol etched into the metal with similar guards on her wrists and shins. She held a bronze staff in one hand and had a small smile on her face. "It is time for young Trevor to go to the ancestral homeland to get his weapon. If he feels he must go, then we shall not let him go unarmed Hellboy."

"I…" I started, but looked at Trevor's expectant face and swallowed. He looked so much like Scout. I nodded. "Go get packed Trev. We're gonna make a side trip before heading out to my favorite spot."

"Favorite spot?" He asked me as he left.

"Yeah. The dead talk there." I said with an evil grin. "And if they know what's good for 'em, they'll tell me what I want to know."

Trevor got an evil smile before running to his room.

Better to let him see know before he really gets freaked out anyway.

-Trevor POV-

I couldn't believe it! He was going to let me go!

Pops can be pretty rough on me, but it's just because he loves me and I know that. But he was gonna let me help save Dad and Uncle Blue! I didn't know which I was more happy about, that or the fact that Aunt De was gonna let me finally go to the home she missed more and more each day without Dad around. They were gonna tell me what weapon I was suppose to have, I was really hoping it would be guns like Dad and Pops. I rubbed my stomach when I felt a cold chill and teared up. No matter how excited I was I could still feel what Dad was feeling. I felt the fear, the disgust, the fear of the past few days and all I wanted to do was go find the botch that took him and ripe her apart with my bare hands! I sat on my truck bed and covered my face, sobbing into my hands. I ran my hands through my hair and over my stubs, Pops had given me a small grinder when they started getting long, and just broke down.

Nothing was the same without my Dad. I still went and worked out with Pops and ate with him, but I couldn't sleep without my Dad close. I couldn't concentrate on anything other than I had to get stronger. I let him down, I wasn't able to protect him because I was too weak. I let everyone down and now two of the four guys I looked up to were gone. Uncle Blue had always been there for me, he knew what was wrong with me before I even said anything, he'd helped Dad teach me to read… I loved them both and they were both gone because some psycho bitch took them!

If they were dead, I was gonna enjoy killing the fucker that destroyed my life.

I looked in amazement at all the houses that were carved into the mountain side and the people. There were so many! I stayed close to Pops and Aunt De and Aunt Liz (though I'm still not sure why she was with us) until I saw a gun shop and fell back a bit to go see it. They were amazing! They had tons of guns! I turned around to holler at Pops to come see when I saw that they were gone…

Crap!

I went inside and shyly looked around until I bumped into someone in the semi automatic handgun section and turn with a shout. I was looking directly into a pair of wide gold eyes and let out a sigh of relief to see that he was the same size as me. I smiled and held out my hand. "Sorry about that. I should've watched where I was going." I looked him over as he stood to his height and gulped when I was looking at the furry throat of a werewolf…

Double crap! I whimpered mentally. The wolf took my hand and I looked to his face and saw his grin.

"It's cool, I was looking at some stuff for my dad. I'm Justin."

"T-trevor." I whispered. He chuckled.

"Well T-Trevor, where's your dad?"

"Dunno… I sorta wandered off after he told me not to and, uh, I'm kinda lost…" I said, feeling my face heat up as he leaned down and sniffed me. Thank you God for showers!

"I can help you find him if you want. I know my way around pretty good." He said and let go of my hand. This was embarrassing! I didn't even know I was still holding his hand!

Focus Trevor! This isn't the time to have some damn crush! I mentally yelled at myself. "I'd-" I cleared my throat, since when did I sound so girlie?, and tried again. "I'd appreciate it." I said. We walked outside and he chuckled. "What?"

"Turns out your dad didn't go too far." He said with a smirk and a pointed clawed finger. I looked up and groaned in embarrassment as I saw Pops storming over to us. "He's freakin' tall!"

"Yeah." I sighed as he came over to glare at Justin.

"Who the hell are you?" He growled, his eyes looking like burnt gold. Justin gulped.

"Enough you idiotic over protective ape!" Aunt De to the rescue! "Trevor! We told you not to wander off!" She looked at Justin and grinned a bit. "Come, time for your test. The council is waiting."

"Kay. Bye Justin!" I said with a wave. Justin smirked and waved before going inside again. "Why do I have to be tested? Why can't I just get a gun instead?"

"It is the way it has been for hundreds of years young one. And Justin has had it done as well." Aunt De said with a smirk. I blushed and looked away.

"Let's just get this over with." I mumbled.

-HB POV-

I sat outside with the others as we waited for Trevor to get out of the room and thought about how terrified I was when I turned around and Trevor was gone. It took De ten minutes to calm me down from tearing everything up to look for him, then we get to the Gun store and he's standing outside with some werewolf kid! Ohhhh I was gonna beat his ass when we got back home!

Ok, so I'd just ground him from training for a week.

I looked at De as she giggled and sighed. "What now you freaking harpy?"

"First of all, I am not a harpy. Second of all, your son has just developed his first little crush!" She cooed. Liz shuddered and looked at the doors.

"What's taking the little bastard so long?" She muttered while tapping her foot. "I thought you said this was quick!"

"It may take longer then some." De said in a hiss. Just then the door opened to an excited Trevor running out waving a pretty damn big gun.

"Pops looket! I got a gun!"

"Yeah great, now stop wavin' the damn thing around before you blow your head off!" I growled before taking it and checking the safety, which was off, and putting it into his holster. Liz laughed.

"What kind of dumbass doesn't even check the-"

I picked her up by the collar of her shirt and slammed her as gently as possible into the nearby wall and growled low in my throat as I wrapped my tail around Trevor's. "Shut the fuck up Liz. I've had just about enough of all of your negative comments at or about Trevor. He's been taking it alright for the past few days, but now you're officially starting to piss me the hell off! So if you can't say somethin' nice, then keep your mother fuckin', trashy, bitchin' mouth shut!" I roared at her before letting her down and walking off, sort of dragging Trevor behind me by the tail. He just sighed and tugged lightly before I let go.

"Can we go talk to the dead guys now Pops? I wanna see how you do it!"

I chuckled. Yeah, he was my kid.

Ok… sorry it took a bit, but things have been a bit hectic since that review. Again, thank you all for your support!

Sorry if this chapter is kind of… scattered. Hope you enjoyed!

Love,

Dana & Andi
